“The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act includes specific safeguards to prevent tax avoidance and help ensure taxpayers of all income levels play by the rules under this new fairer, simpler tax system. Our legislation will ensure this much-needed tax relief goes to the local job creators it’s designed to help by distinguishing between the individual wage income of NBA All-Star Stephen Curry and the pass-through business income of Steve’s Bike Shop.”

Curry, who in July signed a five-year “super max” contract extension with Golden State worth a reported $201 million, responded to the mention with a tweet: “I wonder if Steve’s Bike shop is hiring…”

In February, after Under Armour CEO Kevin Plank described Trump as “a real asset” to the country, Curry — one of Under Armour’s highest-paid endorsers — told The Mercury News, “I agree with that description, if you remove the ‘et.’”

At the Warriors’ media day in September, Curry reiterated that he didn’t want to attend the White House to celebrate his team’s NBA title before he went onto make clear why he cares so much about not making that trip.

“It’s not just the act of not going,” Curry said. “There are things you have to do on the back end to actually push that message into motion. You can talk about all the different personalities that have said things and done things, from (ex-49er quarterback Colin) Kaepernick to what happened to (Seattle Seahawk Michael) Bennett to all sorts of examples of what has gone on in our country that we need to kind of change. And we all are trying to do what we can, using our platforms, using our opportunities to shed light on that.”

The next morning, President Trump tweeted: “Going to the White House is considered a great honor for a championship team. Stephen Curry is hesitating, therefore invitation is withdrawn!”
